<p>I really really want to attend UT AUSTIN but am afraid my GPA wont let me. I have been passionate about everything that I have done in high school and will try my best to let that show on my essays. I had a heart transplant when I was very young and during sophomore year I got very very sick because of it including family troubles to top that off.
PLease tell me my chances!! Will chance back</p>

<p>Your GPA is definitely low but UT’s new admissions process was created to catch gems like you who used to get flat rejected due to over-emphasis on numbers. Your application as a whole is very impressive and should grant you acceptance to most programs (including honors) at UT. Of course, nothing is a sure bet but your chances are great.</p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>

<p>I agree with frever. Explain your situation in the essay for anything else you would like to write about and hopefully you will get in because you are deserving.</p>

<p>Your chances are great! If you have a good essay explaining your situation, the college will absolutely take you.</p>
